Episode Details

Welcome to Elected Women Across America, a podcast brought to you by the National Foundation for Women Legislators and featuring elected women with common goals to exchange legislative ideas and reach across the aisle. Hosted by Brenna Kehew Sculley, this podcast provides a direct line to the leaders that the organization empowers.

In this episode, Brenna sits down with Councilwoman Toyia Tucker of Columbus, Georgia. An Air Force veteran who was raised by a village of educators and military leaders, Councilwoman Tucker shares why her primary focus in office is giving back to the senior community that raised her. Representing one of Georgia’s  largest cities, she details her hands-on approach to local leadership and explores how to tackle the hard choices of local governance with empathy, ensuring seniors can navigate inflation and age in place with the dignity they deserve.

Submissions for the Women of Excellence Awards are open throughout the year! Tune in to hear Communications Coordinator Anna Hale highlight some of our 2026 Award winners. Head to our website to nominate an elected woman who inspires you.
